Amy Catherine Eskridge

  • Who: chemist and entrepreneur who co-founded the Institute for Exotic Science in Huntsville with her father, a retired NASA Marshall engineer, to pursue and disclose antigravity technology.
  • Her own words: in 2021 and 2022 she said she was stalked, threatened and hit with a directed-energy weapon, and texted a friend: "If you see any report that I killed myself, I most definitely did not."
  • What happened: she died in Huntsville on 11 Jun 2022, aged 34, of a reported self-inflicted gunshot wound. Police and medical examiner reports are not public; her father says "nothing suspicious".
  • Why it matters: her case is the source of the directed-energy strand of the missing-scientists theory. Franc Milburn's murder claim reached Congress in Shellenberger's 2024 testimony.

Antigravity entrepreneur, IES. Chemist and entrepreneur who co-founded the Institute for Exotic Science in Huntsville with her father, a retired NASA Marshall engineer, to pursue and disclose antigravity technology. In 2021 and 2022 she said she was being stalked, threatened and hit with a directed-energy weapon, and she texted a friend that any report of her suicide would be false. She died in Huntsville on 11 Jun 2022, aged 34. Her case is the source of the directed-energy strand of the theory.

On the record

  • Died 11 Jun 2022.
  • List check (the press lists): entry checks out. 'Scientist' is generous: a chemist and entrepreneur with no peer-reviewed physics found. One source gives 15 Jun 2022.
  • As the list had it: "Added by the Daily Mail, Mar 2026, giving the theory its other name, the 'Eskridge Conspiracy': Amy Eskridge, Huntsville antigravity researcher and co-founder of the Institute for Exotic Science, died 2022."
  • Cause or status, as sourced: Self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, as reported by the Daily Mail and Fox. The Wikipedia table says police ruled it a suicide. Police and medical examiner reports have not been published. Her father: 'nothing suspicious'. Directed-energy attack or murder: claimed (her own texts; Franc Milburn), not demonstrated.
  • Obituary: died 11 Jun 2022, aged 34. No cause given.
  • Her 2018 slides cover Ning Li and Doug Torr's 'AC Gravity', ask 'What happened to Ning Li?', and conclude 'Promising results always disappear into the classified realm.'
  • Shellenberger's written testimony to House Oversight, 13 Nov 2024, Appendix C: Milburn 'claims she was targeted with directed energy weapons and murdered by a private aerospace company'.
  • Father Richard Eskridge to NewsNation: 'nothing suspicious'; 'Scientists die also, just like other people.'
  • Newsweek found no personal or professional tie to Joshua LeBlanc.
  • Reported cause is a self-inflicted gunshot wound; police and medical examiner reports not released.
